[Wlat] Patton was badly dyslexic. That is probably why he was so bad at math. He flunked out of West Point because of math.

George S. Patton, Jr. graduated from West Point in the class of 1909, ranked 46th out of a class of 103.

Patton had to repeat the plebe year. He flunked out based on his math score. He was at the Point 5 years, as anyone even generally familiar with his story would know.
